I seem to be having the same problem. I have asked my friend to let me be operator but even after following the steps above to fix the problem, I cannot use my privileges. The world settings button does not appear in the pause menu as well as the icons which usually appear beside players' name. We have tried to make other players operators as well to check if I was the problem, as I am playing on the windows 10 edition, but it seems that the problem persists for other players as well. Just wanted to let this issue be known as the thread has been marked as resolved, but it seems that this problem has resurfaced.
